UP Local Train Switching
All 3 of the pictured locomotives are now off UP's roster. All are predecessor units, CNW, MP, and SP/SSW, respectively. I was 12 years old and had just climbed off after a cab ride on the yard job. I may or may not have gotten some throttle time.

A grand trio and very commendable for your early photography - no intrusions. I like the design of 1611 with the cow catcher.

Actually, 1611 is still running strong as NREX 2902!
